  1. The wife and I went upstairs to confront the upstairs neighbor about the noise.  (Running, stomping...)  We'll see how that turns out.  Sigh...

  2. Anybody remember an MSDOS navigation utility that looked almost like 'tree' but allowed a highlight to be moved with the arrow keys, and the enter key changed to that directory?

  3. IntyBasic Wizkidz, I need your help. How to change sprite size from 8x8 to 8x16?

  4. I had to send my MacBook to Apple to repair a charging issue, and it came back with a reformatted drive. Unfortunately, much has been lost as a result.

      Time Machine is the way to go. I've replaced a hard disk drive and after following instructions it was a piece of cake to restore.

  5. I feel bad today because even all our efforts, doctor told me my wife has near to zero hopes because brain cancer advances, cannot receive more radiotheraphy, and the chemotheraphy only helps for the lung.

      Sorry for not reacting to comments. No icon seems appropiated. I'm totally mind numbed.

      Thanks all. My wife was pregnant when cancer got detected by Apr/2016 and was given a 6 month lifetime, it's a miracle she has endured almost 4 years. Our baby daughter was born premature but has done well and now is age 3 and healthy. Currently my wife has double vision and dizziness because brain inflamation, the symptoms were ocassional a few months ago but now almost continuous. She's on prednisone to control this and today entered chemoteraphy again.

      I did this with Congo Bongo for Atari 2600, I bought an expensive one and already had one. Did same with Imagic's Tournament Tennis and it was expensive, now I'm the happy owner of two $350 games. ?

  11. My goal at work today was to not say anything I'd really regret.  So far, so good. One more late meeting and I'll have succeeded.

      That's a wise decision. Sometimes I have to do the same. ?

  14. Removed a dead rat from Mom's garden in the courtyard. The thing I hate about removing dead things (like birds) are I fear they may not actually be dead and come back to life and start moving. But that hasn't happened yet.

      Well, if the rat moved then it would be because it is a zombie and we would never know because you would be already a zombie. ?

  15. So I just got in a risky buy off of Ebay. Tele-Games Warlords, Memory Match, Pong Sports, and Fireworld CIB for 14.77$. In a word, Rough. I opened one of them and saw a dead spider.

      Once I got a Atari 2600 Jr. that had an alive small cockroache inside, along several patches of cockroaches eggs. I sprayed alcohol over them, and these make a crackling sound. Interestingly the alcohol kiils cockroaches. Then it's only a matter of using a toothbrush with more alcohol to clean.

  23. I think Commando is a better movie than Predator, depending on what your mood is.

      No way, Predator is a lot better. In Commando, Arnie standing is transparent for bullets.
